    Academy 2 is the worst venue in Dublin. It's just awful. The stage is really low, so unless you're in the front row, you can't see the gig at all. To be honest, I wouldn't go see anyone there.

    Looks awesome. ^_^
    The Academy 2 is... Certainly more intimate. It's tiny, it's more like a lounge than a venue. Especially since there's this big pole right in the middle of the floor that would completely destroy you if you happened to get flung into it during a pit. The intimacy of the venue is certainly the high point. I saw Skindred there back in March and that was good. It's so small that the band is actually under this arch to the side (I assume it was them anyway, who else would bring a laptop to a gig? O_o) and they had to go through the crowd to get onto the stage. The stage itself, like Mickolution said, is tiny. But not so tiny that you can't see the band from the back. Unless you're a foot tall.

    Yup, it is. :/
    I think if a gig's in the Academy2, it's going to be over 18s due to the bar right at the back of the room.
    Then again, I could be completely wrong. There are two bars in the main room...

    Ah pity :(
    I've been to gigs in the Academy and they were all ok so I assumed it wouldn't be much different for Academy 2..

    I'm not having much luck selling these tickets and really don't want them to go to waste so i'm gonna give them away, i'm so pissed that i'm working and have tried everything to get the night off :(

    If ya want them first person who posts them can have them

    My only stipulation, to ensure they go to a real Rock/Metal fan, is that you have at least 30 posts in the Rock/Metal forum at the time i have posted this.
